Chapter XXIV

I got my test back, and was greeted by the heartwarming giant red 'D' written on he top corner of paper.

"I would like to speak with you after class, Maeve." she sighed as after she had placed down my paper.

Shit. Fuck. Shit. Fuck. Shit. Fuck.

Class ended, and I shoved everything into my backpack as I made my way to the ratty teacher's desk.

"Maeve. Sweet, sweet, Maeve. You practically failed your test." she lectured, then continued.

"You're better than that." Lies.

"You're smarter than that." Lies.

"And I think you'll be needing a tutor." Wait what?

"Huh?" I replied with a dumb confused look on my face.

"Now I do have a student that is an amazing student. They're super smart, super kind, and A+. And as a matter of fact, they're new this year too!" she explained.

Here we go....

"His name is Bradley Morgan."

WHAT.

I thought it would be...

"Who?" I blinked.

"Bradley Morgan. Maybe you don't know him."

"Oh no no no I know him. You want him to tutor me?"

"Is that an issue?"

Yes. "Oh no.... definitely not."

"Great! I suggest you go talk to him some time and schedule plans for the tutoring. Hopefully you improve." she held a stack of papers in her hand and rearranged them by hitting each side on her desk.

I didn't even bother to say anything and instead just walked out of there like it was nobody's business.

"Maeve!" I heard a voice call after me. I turned around and saw nobody who seemed to be looking for me.

"Maeve!" the voice came again.

Then the familiar face walked up to me with a smile.

"Oh hello Levi." I waved slightly with a fake smile since I was still heated about Algebra.

"Yes yes, that is my name." he pretended to bow down as if he just acted it in a broadway musical.

Leviathan Bridges. I've known him since 8th grade. He's actually quite nice when you get to know. A little Satanic, but other than that, he's nice.

"Alright what do you need?" I rolled my eyes. 

"Well you do know what time of year it is..." he smirked.

Ahh yes, Butterscotch's favorite week of the whole school year: Scarlet Week.

Why it's called Scarlet Week? Don't ask me. But during this week is when Leviathan and a bunch of his friends from both Butterscotch and Cinnamon High come together to pull a huge prank on both schools.

Nobody knows who the people are that pull the pranks except for me and a few other trustworthy people. That way nobody besides the janitors has to clean up, and nobody gets in trouble.

Scarlet Week has run through many many generations and Leviathan's family and friends had took part in this as well, no matter which high school they were at.

"Right. So what do you need me to do?" I was up for anything. Pulling these pranks were quite fun. Last year we did the sticky note prank, which is quite basic but it's extremely annoying to clean up.
